Quotes by Mireille Chester  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Well, no. I'm not saying I'm not enjoying this immensely. She feels heavenly in my arms. Fits perfectly. And if we are fated, the least you can do is let me hold her." Jasper to Dodge (Crossover)”
Mireille Chester, Crossover

“What's Shlova?"
He started behind me. "When did I say that?"
"This morning, when we started off. Before you got mad at Dodge. You said,'we better get going, Shlova'."
"Oh. Well, it means love." His voice was quiet.”
Mireille Chester, Crossover

“When they killed my family, they may as well have killed me, Hayden. I was fourteen when I killed my first man. I wasn't even of age. All I could think about was what he had done to my mother, my father, my sister and my brother. That was all I could see. Luke found out who they were and we took care of them. I spent the next sixteen years doint the same thing. I don't think I was alive. I died that night.
"I never worried going into battles. I never cared what would happen if I jumped into an ambush. How could I die if I was already dead?"
I reached back and pulled his head down so that it was against mine. His arms tightened around me.
"But then one day, I looked down a hill and saw this most beautiful woman. I looked into those unbelievable eyes and my heart jumped. When you kissed me by the lake it started to beat again. You're the one who brought me back to life, Hayden, and now that I'm alive again, I'm terrified.”
Mireille Chester, Journey

Mireille Chester My very first guest post. :) http://brha99.wordpress.com/2011/08/2...


Mireille Chester Anyone know of any book reviewers who might be interested in reviewing 'Destiny' before it's release date of Dec. 1st? Just a heads up, this is NOT a YA series. If you do, could you DM me their website please and thank you. If you're a reviewer and you're interested, then just DM me :D http://mireillechester.com/books/book...
It seems all the websites I visit are focused on YA.

Busy as well. Been doing some writing and editing. I'm not sure why they call them summer holidays. lol With the kids home from school it seems there's no time for rest. But it's been great. Spent a lot of time at the lake. Two more weeks of 'holidays' and the kids are back at school so I can get back to getting more writing done. :D
